About this audiobook
The Core of the Mormon Religion, commonly understood through the Standard LDS Quad, gathers the scriptural canon that frames Latter-day Saint belief: the Bible, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price. Its range is striking—biblical narrative, prophetic revelation, covenantal instruction, visionary cosmology, and sacred history—written in a style that deliberately echoes the cadences of the King James Bible while extending nineteenth-century American restorationist concerns into a new scriptural world. Joseph Smith Jr. (1805–1844), founder of the Latter-day Saint movement, emerged from the religious ferment of early republican America, a culture shaped by revivalism, biblical primitivism, and competing claims to divine authority. His accounts of visions, angelic visitation, translation, and continuing revelation gave rise to a distinctive theology of priesthood, temple worship, gathering Israel, and an expansive view of human divinization. This volume is indispensable for readers seeking to understand Mormonism from its own sacred sources. Scholars of American religion, students of scripture, and general readers interested in new religious movements will find here the textual foundation of a tradition whose influence extends far beyond its nineteenth-century origins.
